Abstract (en)
[origin: US5390826A] An improved bottled water station is provided of the type including a removable reservoir for drop-in installation into a station housing, wherein the reservoir is adapted for slide-fit engagement with a manifolded support platform for coupling the reservoir to at least one temperature control device and to at least one faucet valve for dispensing. The reservoir is constructed, in the preferred form, from a molded plastic or the like to have an open upper end for receiving and supporting an inverted water supply bottle. The reservoir, upon drop-in installation into the station housing, is supported upon the manifolded support platform, wherein the reservoir and platform include mating slide-fit connectors for coupling the reservoir to temperature control devices such as a chiller probe for chilling water within the reservoir, and/or a hot water tank for heating a portion of the water coupling from the reservoir. The support platform also includes dispenser fittings for connection to faucet valves disposed at the front of the station housing for individual dispensing of water supplies at different temperatures.
